It’s simply the way of the footwear world that eventually the sheen off of any new models eventually wears off, either usurped by fresher competition or left behind as fashion trends move on. You can make the case that both are true for the New Balance 9060, beat in terms of recency by silhouettes like the New Balance 204L or New Balance 2010, and owing much of its construction to the chunky shoe trends that ruled at the turn of the decade.

However, don’t get the impression that the silhouette has been entirely left in the dust. For its attendance to the “tech runner” wave, easy wearability, and overall comfort, the shoe is still one of the more popular sights you’ll come across in any metro area. Doubling down on the middle part of that formula is the New Balance 9060 “Shipyard,” a monochromatic overhaul that pastes neutral beige from heel to toe, save for the outsole traction pods in black.

The New Balance 9060 “Shipyard” is available at overseas retailers like BSTN, with a global/wide launch likely to follow behind in short order. For US readers, a $160 sticker price is expected to accompany this colorway.
